I've always loved Croatian cheese pie. It's one of those comfort foods that always brings back fond memories of my childhood. My grandmother used to make it all the time, and I would always beg her for a slice. The best part about this pie is that it's so versatile. You can serve it for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and it's always a hit.
The filling is made with a combination of cottage cheese, sour cream, sugar, and raisins. It's sweet and savory, and it pairs perfectly with the flaky crust. The crust is made with a simple combination of flour, butter, and eggs. It's light and airy, and it bakes up to a beautiful golden brown.

Step-by-step
- Make dough: flour, breadcrumbs, lemon rinds, sugar, baking powder, salt, vanilla sugar, melted butter. Mix in a bowl, add egg yolks, sour cream, until greasy dough forms. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
- Prepare stuffing: mix cheese, sour cream, yolks, sugar, vanilla sugar. Soak raisins in plum brandy or rum until swell up. Make "snow" from egg white and add to stuffing, along with raisins and lemon rinds.
- Roll dough into thin sheet. Cover cake pan bottom with butter and dough sheet. Pour cheese stuffing on dough. Roll remaining dough into thin sheet and put over cheese, covering it. Poke 10 holes with a fork on the cover.
- Preheat oven to 170°C and bake for 50-60 minutes or until light golden.
